Lenox town, GA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Lenox town is a very small community in Georgia, with 695 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #443 of 675 ranked by population — larger than 34% of them. The median age here is 36.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in Lenox town earn a median of $37,250 a year, 52.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 35% below the $57,300 median for the 378 Georgia cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 15.1% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Lenox town is valued at $81,000, 73.3% below the national figure and 58% below the $191,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $782 a month, 44.4% below the national figure, or roughly $9,384 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 25.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 58.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

With 695 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Lenox town against its county rather than against national figures.
